“The best season in the major college football history of San Jose State concluded with a game that showcased how this team reached levels not before seen,” San Jose Mercury News reporter Jimmy Durkin wrote of SJSU’s 29-20 victory over Bowling Green at the Military Bowl in Washington, D.C. After quarterback David Fales was named MVP, he was quick to share the credit. “I’m just so excited for the coaching staff and the seniors and the people who put in all that hard work,” he said. These achievements provided the Spartan football team, cheer team and marching band with the opportunity to perform on a national level, a transformational opportunity SJSU strives to provide all students.
